Megastar Amitabh Bachchan is keen to watch director Mrighdeep Singh Lamba's movie "Fukrey", which is running well on word-of-mouth.
Big B is specially looking forward to watch Richa Chadha's performance in the movie, which also features Pulkit Samrat, Manjot Singh, Ali Fazal, Varun Sharma, Priya Anand and Vishakha Singh.
"I wish to see 'Fukrey' which is garnering praise from all quarters. The performances are good, and one such comes from Richa Chaddha, who Anurag brought to meet me on the sets (of a TV show).
"She was so good in 'Gangs Of Wasseypur' and I believe has done very good work in 'Fukrey' too," Big B posted on his blog.
Big B will soon be seen in Prakash Jha's "Satyagraha", and he is busy shooting for his debut TV fiction show with Kashyap.
